Steve Jobs: "I Almost Died"

There is very little evidence that he donates or helps the needy (one article can be found from http://www.wired.com/gadgets/mac/commentary/cultofmac/2006/0... ) and he seems more concerned with his companies image than anything else.

It seems that the guy can barely breathe without the media twittering it to us. I really don't think we should be placing him on a pedestal for being nice. He really doesn't do much...

The original story, with an interesting video if you have a spare half hour. Steve Jobs and Arnold Schwarznegger team up with a democratic senator from San Jose to support legislation which will mandate active gathering of donor information, and the creation a live kidney registry, the first in the US.

If you live in California, this is a truly bipartisan issue you can feel proud to support, whatever your politics. Contacting my local senator to ask they do the same took only 5 minutes.
